These are all minor things I think could make the page even better:

  • Images/Logos next to each download image type. Sure I can read the page, but my eyes are quicker to jump to the corresponding logo for the image type.

  • Download size in the “Download” button for each image time. This might sway my decision which to download to choose for example.

  • File extension in the “Download” button. Sometimes newcomers latch on to the extension for their platform and come knowing that “I need a VMDK”.

  • Consider having the Version/Date information be in a single place at the top, and only appear if the version is not matched to latest for a specific reason (hopefully this is an infrequent). If the per-image version is important, consider it in the “Download” button. The collapsible for 2 lines seems like overkill and not all of those middle blocks expand.

  • Grouping of like-kind images in one block with multiple image download options. (e.g. Azure and Azure Machine Learning images in one content block, KVM and KVM legacy in one content block). To me, that would be easier to digest

  • Separation of supporting files, tools, scripts into another visually distinct area. Or, add them to the KVM download block since that is what they are relevant for. Right now they appear the same as another image for a Clear Linux image type and add noise when looking over the download options.
